Started 5mg finasteride for BPH couple years ago. I was miserable...2-3 bathroom trips nightly, discomfort in testicles (like I'd been kicked) and worst of all, blood in ejaculate that turned it brown. The latter thoroughly disgusted my wife and me. Took a few months to kick in, but now bathroom trips are 1-2, discomfort and blood are gone. Hooray! Downside is same as others have mentioned.....ge...
finasteride is a new prescription not yet started,for BPH. I also take diovan 320mg for HBP and for recent open heart surgery. other meds:lipitor 40mg,ecotrin 81mg and diazepam 5mg. ( all above 1 dose per day ) Is there any problem with compatability with finasteride?
